摘要:

利用遥感数据开展森林资源树种的分类对森林资源的监测、森林可持续经营及生物多样性研究都有重要意义。该文以江苏南部丘陵地区的北亚热带天然次生林为研究对象, 利用LiCHy (LiDAR、CCD、Hyperspectral)集成传感器同期获取的高分辨率和高光谱数据, 进行冠幅识别和多个层次的树种分类: 首先, 对高分辨率影像进行基于边缘检测的多尺度分割, 提取出单木冠幅; 其次, 对高光谱影像进行特征变量提取, 并对提取出的特征变量利用信息熵原理选取优化特征变量; 然后, 分别利用全部特征变量和经优化的重要特征变量对森林树种及森林类型进行预分类; 最后, 在预分类结果中加入单木冠幅信息对森林树种及森林类型进行重分类, 并分析分类结果的精度。研究表明: 1)利用全部特征变量进行4个典型树种分类时, 总体精度为64.6%, Kappa系数为0.493; 而针对森林类型的分类精度为81.1%, Kappa系数为0.584。2)利用选取的优化特征变量分类精度略低于利用全部特征变量的分类精度, 其中对4个典型树种分类时, 总体精度为62.9%, Kappa系数为0.459; 而针对森林类型的分类精度为77.7%, Kappa系数为0.525。通过集成传感器同期获取的高分辨率和高光谱数据可以有效地进行北亚热带森林的树种分类及森林类型的划分。

Abstract:

Aims Using remote sensing data for tree species classification plays a key role in forestry resource monitoring, sustainable forest management and biodiversity research.Methods This study used integrated sensor LiCHy (LiDAR, CCD and Hyperspectral) to obtain both the high resolution imagery and the hyperspectral data at the same time for the natural secondary forest in south Jiangsu hilly region. The data were used to identify the crown and to classify tree species at multiple levels. Firstly, tree crowns were selected by segmenting high-resolution imagery at multiple scales based on edge detection; secondly, characteristic variables of hyperspectral images were extracted, then optimization variables were selected based on the theory of information entropy. Tree species and forest types were classified using either all characteristic variables or optimization variables only. Finally, tree species and forest types were reclassified along with the tree crowns information, and the accuracy of classification was discussed. Important findings Based on all available characteristic variables, the overall accuracy for four typical tree species classification was 64.6%, and the Kappa coefficient was 0.493. The overall accuracy for forest types classification was 81.1%, and the Kappa coefficient was 0.584. Based on optimization variables only, the overall accuracy for four typical tree species classification dropped to 62.9%, and the Kappa coefficient was 0.459. The overall accuracy for forest types classification was 77.7%, and the Kappa coefficient was 0.525. Obtaining both high resolution image and hyperspectral data at the same time by integrated sensor can increase overall accuracy in classifying forest types and tree species in northern subtropical forest.
